I voted for pasta (with pizza coming in at a close 2nd). There's loads of different types and can have loads of different stuff with it (I like it with avocado, but I'm weird like that). It's also the only thing served at my school which doesn't make the table transparent when you rub it on. I'm not a fan of meatballs or subs.

About foods not migrating: I had a friend from Italy stay in the States for a year, and she had never had peanut butter before she came here. She loved it though. She was an exchange student, so when she graduated I got her a giant tub of it for her gift to take back home.

I admit I voted for meatballs, since there are a wide variety of recipes, and they can accompany any of the other three (depending on what recipe you use) at almost any time. That being said, I love pasta, pizza and subs, and surprisingly, Sheetz (which is a convenience store chain) has some decent ones. They had a pepperoni sub for a while, but it only brought to my attention that I can't consume pepperoni in large quantities anymore . I used to get the small bags of it at the grocery store just to eat as a snack.

I prefer kebapche - it is Bulgarian specialty, which is made of minced meat and spices and is very similar to the meatball, but has a different shape (another difference between those is that the meat for meatballs has onions in it, which is not true for the kebapche) - it looks like a finger, but is usually longer and thicker and it is always grilled, unlike meatballs which can be also fried.
